Probably not doing much with PR1MOS these days...

Peek, Poke and LogMon have indeed been around for years, and
Computronics has a solid reputation.

Wow memories. I'll speak up and agree with Allen -- solid products in the Pr1me 
world. 15 years is definitely an underestimate. This is a forum where we know 
that seasoned tools bring proven value. Thanks for piping up Randy.

For a webapp, does an animated gif really detract processing time? The gif 
should be running client side,
And the processing of the app would be running server side. Maybe you could 
only show the gif while 
The app is waiting for the server to push some more data?

You are correct that the animated gif does not harm the processing time on
the server. I think it is obnoxious to the user when it is there for too
short a time, so I hauled some out and stopped putting them in, figuring we
will wait to see where they are really needed once we do volume testing. I
have not researched it to see if there are any studies that suggest that an
animated gif that flashes quickly provides a bad user experience. My UX
testing in this case was not formal -- it was me going oh, yuck, I don't
want that gif to be there for so short a time.

Re: [U2] READU vs READ and CRT

2012-05-02 Thread George Gallen
I use two different onesFor general applications, I have a perpetual 
melting ice cube, 
   and for financial transactions I use a stack of money being fanned. 

Sometimes you focus on the image itself and the wait seems like years, other 
times, you
   Can work on something else, and know it's completed when the image disappers.

Nothings worse than having the application finish, and you keep waiting because 
you didn't
   Realize it updated, especially if the layout of the page doesn't change, 
just 
   The page data.

Maybe you could use a javascript timer to unhide the image after x number of 
seconds goes by.
   So if it updates in less than 5 seconds, no image, after 5 seconds you get a 
working icon.

Re: [U2] READU vs READ and CRT

2012-05-02 Thread Tony Gravagno
That's been the default mechanism for years in ASP.NET Ajax (just
another free framework). Your progress panel is set to only go visible
if an ajax request doesn't return in x seconds.

Each request needs to be considered for tuning. The response to a
simple data validation is expected to only take a second or so, but
populating a grid may be expected to take much longer. Then again if
you're not using session pooling and a bunch of users hit your server,
then even the simplest validation could take some number of seconds.
So you don't want to hardcode to turn off the progress animation.
Consider that people get uptight and start re-clicking if they don't
get immediate gratification - that's just the broadband world we live
in even  if the expectation isn't realistic. So it's not unreasonable
to show progress entertainment within 1-2 seconds of a request, just
to pre-empt that nervous clicking.

Of course, if you expect that a transaction will take longer than a
few seconds, tell the user (just don't use a modal form!), and for
larger reports consider more asynchronous methods which don't require
the user to sit there with a progress indicator in the first place.

Re: [U2] READU vs READ and CRT

2012-05-02 Thread John Hester
Another very simple and subtle thing you can do is make use of the
default OS pointer icons via javascript:

document.body.style.cursor = 'wait';  // hourglass, spinning circle,
etc.
document.body.style.cursor = 'default'; // arrow

I change the pointer for AJAX calls when the user should wait for
results from before doing something else, and additionally pop up an
animated gif for the calls I know will take more than 3 or 4 seconds.
It's pretty clear to users that they shouldn't attempt to click on
things when the mouse pointer is not an arrow or hand.

Another very simple and subtle thing you can do is make use of the
default OS pointer icons via javascript:

document.body.style.cursor = 'wait';  // hourglass, spinning circle,
etc.
document.body.style.cursor = 'default'; // arrow

I change the pointer for AJAX calls when the user should wait for
results from before doing something else, and additionally pop up an
animated gif for the calls I know will take more than 3 or 4 seconds.
It's pretty clear to users that they shouldn't attempt to click on
things when the mouse pointer is not an arrow or hand.

ModalPopups are, in my opinion, the cleanest solution since they lock
the page from interaction by default and can be build and styled to look
anyway you want.  Unfortunately a huge percentage (thanks to the Symbol
9090s running wm6) of business handheld devices don't support ajax =(

[U2] Attribute Problem

2012-05-02 Thread Charles_Shaffer
Hi.  I think I have finally gone insane. 

I am having a problem with the attribute MATL.AMT.  It calculates the 
extended amount on hand by taking the frozen material cost times the on 
hand amount.

The problem is when I use F_MATL for the frozen material cost, MATL.AMT is 
good.  When I use F-MATL for the frozen material cost, it returns 0 
everytime.

F_MATL and F-MATL are identical and if you list them both work fine.  But 
when they are used in the calculation F_MATL works, but F-MATL. doesn't. 
Can anyone see what the problem is?

Isn't the DICT at risk of treating the - in F-MATL as a minus?  Just a

I would guess that the calculation is trying to subtract MATL from F. Could
it be enclosed in quotes or something?

Modal popups will lock the user on the popup and if the Ajax
connection doesn't come back (locked READU, dead connection, license
blocking, etc) you're going to have a very unhappy user because they
can't get out of the trap. Maybe I missed something to your approach

Re: [U2] Show processing to user via icons

2012-05-02 Thread Holt, Jake
Most of my connections are handled through WCF so there is a built in
RequestTimeout.  That said, it's easily solved by putting a cancel
button on the popup if it's a problem.  I've never really had a problem
with it unless the wheels totally come off and I doubt there are any
solutions that work if that's the case.  

There is also the UpdateProgressPanel but I'm not sure that exists
outside .net.   This is exactly It's designed for, I think it's more
clumsy they modalpopups though and you'd potentially have the same
issue.

Subject: [U2] Attribute Problem

Hi.  I think I have finally gone insane. 

I am having a problem with the attribute MATL.AMT.  It calculates the
extended amount on hand by taking the frozen material cost times the on hand
amount.

The problem is when I use F_MATL for the frozen material cost, MATL.AMT is
good.  When I use F-MATL for the frozen material cost, it returns 0
everytime.

F_MATL and F-MATL are identical and if you list them both work fine.
But when they are used in the calculation F_MATL works, but F-MATL.
doesn't. 
Can anyone see what the problem is?

Re: [U2] User timeout question

2012-05-02 Thread Lunt, Bruce

I have tried adding TIMEOUT to the LOGIN paragraph and it fails to work. The
trick, I found, is to add to the SB Setup Logon/Logto process. After I did
that it works very well.

Thanks again for the help.

Bruce

On Unidata use TIMEOUT.This will logoff the session when inactive
keyboard exceeds the desired time period.

I tried HELP AUTOLOGOUT but it was not there. Is this a recent command? We
are running version 7.1 of Unidata.
